Has there ever been an example of someone dropping so much weight that it kind've hit the same nerve as actual shrinking?
Lately I've been fascinated by singer Adele, who supposedly lost over 100lbs. When she went on SNL to host, some outlet stated something like "she debutted her smaller frame" and I've loved that image and the idea ever since.
Obviously, we can get into all those magazine quips of "losing inches" and "half her size," but I'm interested if anyone is interested in it like a legitimate transformation (plus, IIRC supposedly people can lose some weight in their feet and actually shrink a little in height so it technically counts anyway
).
